Text: Lamentations 2:19; Matthew 13:25
Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan
Exhortation:
Jesus warned that “while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat” (Matthew 13:25). The enemy often works secretly, planting seeds of affliction, delay, fear, confusion, and spiritual compromise under the cover of darkness. That is why every believer must remain spiritually watchful and refuse to give the enemy an advantage through prayerlessness.
Whatever the enemy has planted, God has the power to uproot. No work of darkness is beyond His ability to reverse, and no situation is too concluded for His intervention. The Lord who restores wasted years is still able to reverse the irreversible, undo the concluded works of darkness, and restore everything the night raiders have stolen.
The Bible gives us a clear strategy: “Arise, cry out in the night: in the beginning of the watches pour out thine heart like water before the face of the Lord” (Lamentations 2:19). Do not merely lament your losses—turn your midnight into a prayer altar. As you arise and cry to God for restoration, He will uproot every evil seed and cause you to recover all that the enemy thought was permanently lost.
Prayer Nugget: Father, as I arise to cry to You in the night, uproot every evil seed planted against my life. Reverse the irreversible, undo every concluded work of darkness, and let me recover all that the enemy has stolen, in Jesus’ name.
